A lot of the fans get it wrong. They think Marco died at the studio on Holland Road. He died in his apartment just up the road. I was the only one there when it happened. I still live on Holland Road--- right opposite the studio. Sometimes I watch the fans come by and leave flowers and stuff. It happens less now, but then the band split back in '74 so it's really a surprise anyone shows up at all. But they do. Mostly it's tourists and die hard fans. Usually on the anniversary.
It's nice though... it's nice to see people leave flowers and it's nice to know the band are still remembered. It's kind of funny though, the way they all come out to grieve for some dead rockstar. It's funny, because if they looked across the street they'd probably see me and realise that Marco isn't dead at all.
